WrestleMania 41 featured some huge title matches and Dominik Mysterio managed to take his career to the next level when he won the WWE Intercontinental Championship on the Grandest Stage of Them All. On Saturday night Dominik put his title on the line at Backlash when he defended the belt against Penta.
As Dominik made his entrance the other members of The Judgment Day stood on the stage with him. However, they all stayed behind as Dominik walked to the ring with the Intercontinental Championship.
As the match progressed Penta hit Dominik with the destroyer on the apron and they fell to the outside. Carlito ran down the ramp and distracted the referee then JD and Finn Balor jumped over the barricade. Finn grabbed a chair and went to hit Penta, but the referee noticed them and banned them from ringside. Penta then jumped over the top rope and landed on Carlito and JD.
Finn Balor got up on the apron and distracted the referee as El Grande Americano appeared. El Grande Americano hit Penta with a head butt as he was climbing the top rope and Penta fell to the mat. Dominik then followed up with a Frog Splash to retain the title.
